Christian Lynch to Join Men’s Hoops for 2013-14 Season

QUINCY, Mass.- Eastern Nazarene men's basketball head coach Jim Aller has announced the addition of incoming freshman Christian Lynch for the 2013-14 campaign.

Lynch is a 6-1 guard from Roswell, Ga. where he attends Centennial High School. He helped the Centennial Knights to a 14-9 overall record and a 9-3 conference record while averaging 11.0 points per game, 3.1 assists per game, 3.0 steals per game and 2.8 rebounds per game.

Lynch joins two other Centennial High School alums on the Lions' roster. Rising-sophomores Eric Lynch and Jaylen Owens, the 2012-13 Commonwealth Coast Conference Rookie of the Year, both suited up for the Knights before attending Eastern Nazarene.

This season, Eastern Nazarene went 18-9 on the year and reached the Commonwealth Coast Conference Tournament with an 11-7 league record. The Lions fell to top-seeded Curry 82-76 in the semifinal round.
